La Gloria Cubana Serie R Esteli Maduro – Debut in 2016

Last year June 15th, 2016 La Gloria announced their 2 new cigar lines via the La Gloria Cubana Society (Light and Learn) internet broadcast with host Michael Giannini.

The two cigars showcased last June were the La Gloria Cubana Serie R Esteli Maduro and the La Gloria Cubana Black Maduro. Both the The Serie R Esteli Maduro and Serie R Black Maduro will highlight the Connecticut Broadleaf wrapper instead of the familiar Nicaraguan tobaccos. The now famous cigars launched their smoking careers on July 1st, 2016.

Actually both of the Serie R Esteli and Serie R Black lines made their cigar debuts in the year 2013 and it’s been very profitable and popular to the La Gloria lines. Both cigars were Nicaraguan puros introduced to the La Gloria Cubana brand. The Serie R Esteli has been given the status of a brick and mortar type cigar, while the Serie R Black has been classified as a top online retail seller sold only online through cigar websites such as Windy City Cigars.

To the eye the La Gloria Cubana Serie R Maduro is entrenched in a deep brown wrapper that is hinting on the color black and has a main attribute of both tooth and oil. Even though there is a profusion of oil there is almost no indication of any veins to be seen. Upon a good squeeze some feel the cigar itself was a little soft to the touch than desired. The fragrance from the wrapper is a mixture of leather, strong earth, dark chocolate, ash and hay. On the other hand the cold draw brought flavors of dark cocoa, earth, yeast, hay and a unique raisin flavor.

Any way you look at it these cigars are sure to please any cigar aficionado and must have for anyone’s’ humidor.
